Abstract Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable B-cell malignancy in which the marrow microenvironment plays a critical role in our inability to cure MM. Marrow stromal cells in the microenvironment support homing, lodging, and growth of MM cells through activation of multiple signaling pathways in both MM and stromal cells. Recently, we identified annexin II (AXII) as a previously unknown factor produced by stromal cells and osteoclasts (OCL) that is involved in OCL formation, HSC and prostate cancer (PCa) homing to the BM as well as mobilization of HSC and PCa cells. AXII expressed on stromal cells supports PCa cell lodgment via the AXII receptor (AXIIR) on PCa cells, but the role of AXII and AXIIR in MM is unknown. In this study, we show that MM cells express AXIIR, that stromal/osteoblast-derived AXII facilitates adhesion of MM cells to stromal cells via AXIIR, and OCL-derived AXII enhances MM cell growth. Finally, we demonstrate that AXII activates the ERK1/2 and AKT pathways in MM cells to enhance MM cell growth. These results demonstrate that AXII and AXIIR play important roles in MM and that targeting the AXII/AXIIR axis may be a novel therapeutic approach for MM.

It has been reported that the activation of multiple myeloma (MM) cells by CD40 induces proliferation, growth arrest, and apoptosis. To determine whether the biologic sequelae of CD40 activation in MM cells depends on p53 function, we identified temperature-sensitive p53 mutations in the RPMI 8226 (tsp53E285K) and the HS Sultan (tsp53Y163H) MM cell lines. These cells were then used as a model system of inducible wtp53-like function because wild-type-like p53 is induced at permissive (30°C) but not at restrictive (37°C) temperatures. Using p21-luciferase reporter assays, we confirmed that CD40 induces p53 transactivation in RPMI 8226 and HS Sultan cells cultured under permissive, but not restrictive, conditions. Furthermore, CD40 activation of these MM cells under permissive, but not restrictive, temperatures increased the expression of p53 and p21 mRNA and protein. Importantly, CD40 activation induced the proliferation of RPMI 8226 and HS Sultan cells at restrictive temperatures and growth arrest and increased subG1 phase cells at permissive temperatures. These data confirmed that CD40 activation might have distinct biologic sequelae in MM cells, depending on their p53 status.
